Is NACA p.Pro43Ser (c.127C>T) pathogenic?

NACA p.Pro43Ser (c.127C>T) is classified Uncertain significance in NACA (ClinVar, Single submitter, 1 submitter; last evaluated 2024-07-17). AlphaMissense: likely benign (0.1033); Very rare (popmax 0.0012%, sas).

How common is NACA p.Pro43Ser (c.127C>T) in the general population?

NACA p.Pro43Ser (c.127C>T) is very rare (popmax 0.0012%, sas) (gnomAD).

What do computational predictors say about NACA p.Pro43Ser (c.127C>T)?

AlphaMissense predicts likely benign (score 0.1033) — an in-silico prediction, not a clinical call.

Protein change
AlphaMissense	0.1033	likely benign
REVEL	0.015	strongly benign-leaning
SaProt	LLR -5.91	tolerated
⇒ AlphaMissense, REVEL and SaProt all call this tolerated.

ClinVar classifies this uncertain; the computational predictors unanimously lean tolerated — a triage signal, not a reclassification

AlphaMissense carries the ACMG weight for missense; REVEL and SaProt are independent agreement signals.

Rarity supports pathogenicity (ACMG PM2); frequency above a disease-specific BA1/BS1 threshold argues against it. A variant frequent in one ancestry group can be near-absent in others, so a single global figure can mislead.
